Then press “Run this every day”, or say it to your AI. From 16 credits a platform a run, priced before it runs. Only new posts count as new. It uses no account of yours. - Page: https://socialtoai.com/monitors/brand/ - Last updated: 2026-11-06 > Every morning, check what is new about “acme” on Reddit and X, and list the negative posts first. [Run this every day](https://socialtoai.com/tools/brand-buzz.md) · [Or just say it to your AI](https://socialtoai.com/docs/schedules.md#watch) · No account of yours needed, your accounts stay out of it · failed runs are free ## First, run it once On [Brand buzz](https://socialtoai.com/tools/brand-buzz.md), type the brand and choose the platforms. Add a line on what the brand is, so that namesakes are left out. A real run on the live service, recorded 2026-10-18: > How is the Xiaomi SU7 discussed on Weibo this month?

Every claim links to its source. ## Then say one sentence to your AI Once SocialToAI is [connected](https://socialtoai.com/mcp.md), say what to watch. Your AI first shows what will run, when, about what a run costs and at most what a month costs, and where new items go. It charges nothing for that, and makes the watch only after you agree. **Say this** ``` Every morning, check what is new about “acme” on Reddit and X, and list the negative posts first. ``` It works without an AI too: run the tool or the call on the website, then press the daily button. Everything else about a watch is in [Schedules](https://socialtoai.com/docs/schedules.md). ## At most what it costs Two ways to watch, per platform: the tool reads more and sums it up; a plain search reads one page and brings only the new posts. | What you watch | A run | A month, daily | A month, weekly | A daily month at the first pack | The free credits cover | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RedNote, with the tool | 36 | 1,116 | 180 | about $3.72 | 2 runs | | RedNote, a plain search | 12 | 372 | 60 | about $1.24 | 8 runs | | Douyin, with the tool | 60 | 1,860 | 300 | about $6.20 | 1 runs | | Douyin, a plain search | 12 | 372 | 60 | about $1.24 | 8 runs | | Weibo, with the tool | 20 | 620 | 100 | about $2.07 | 5 runs | | Weibo, a plain search | 2 | 62 | 10 | about $0.21 | 50 runs | | X, with the tool | 16 | 496 | 80 | about $1.65 | 6 runs | | X, a plain search | 2 | 62 | 10 | about $0.21 | 50 runs | | Reddit, with the tool | 20 | 620 | 100 | about $2.07 | 5 runs | | Reddit, a plain search | 2 | 62 | 10 | about $0.21 | 50 runs | | TikTok, with the tool | 16 | 496 | 80 | about $1.65 | 6 runs | | TikTok, a plain search | 2 | 62 | 10 | about $0.21 | 50 runs | | YouTube, with the tool | 16 | 496 | 80 | about $1.65 | 6 runs | | YouTube, a plain search | 2 | 62 | 10 | about $0.21 | 50 runs | | Instagram, with the tool | 16 | 496 | 80 | about $1.65 | 6 runs | | Instagram, a plain search | 3 | 93 | 15 | about $0.31 | 33 runs | ## Where new items go Pick one or several when you make the watch. What it can send is the same on every platform. | Where | How to set it | What arrives | | --- | --- | --- | | Email | On by default for a watch made in your AI or in the console. With a key, send `email_new_items: true`. | How many are new, with their links. | | Feishu / Lark | Add a custom bot to the group and give its address to your AI or to `push_url`. We post a test message first. | The count, the first 5 links, what the run cost, a link to the console. No post text. | | WeCom | The same, with a group bot's address. | The same. | | Slack | The same, with an Incoming Webhooks address. | The same. | | RSS or JSON Feed | Every watch has one private address, on the Tasks page (https://socialtoai.com/console/tasks/). Reading it is free. | Links and dates. For 24 hours after a run also the title and the start of the text. Anyone with the address can read it. | | Webhook | Add an endpoint in the console's settings. See [Webhooks](https://socialtoai.com/docs/webhooks.md). | `schedule_run.finished` after each run, and `schedule.alert` when its main number moves. Signed. | | Your AI, when you ask | Ask “what's new?”. Nothing to set. | What your watches found and you have not seen, for free. | ## What to know first - **The first run is only the starting point.** It notes what is there and sends nothing new, and it is charged like any run. New items start with the second run. - **Daily or weekly, not real time.** It runs at the time you choose, in your time zone. - **A run with nothing new still costs a run:** it read the page. A failed run costs nothing. - **It stays under its limits.** One run may cost at most what you set. The month's most is that limit times 31 for a daily watch and 5 for a weekly one; a run past either is skipped, free. - **One free, then 20.** A free account holds 1 watch, run from its free credits. When they no longer cover a run it pauses, charges nothing and emails you; any purchase starts it again. An account that has bought credits holds 20. - **New means posts the last run did not have.** A post that is old but newly found counts as new once. - **Where a platform gives no link, the item says so.** ## FAQ ### Can it tell the brand from things with the same name? Give it one line on what the brand is (`about`) and it leaves out what does not fit. A very common name will still bring some strays. ### Does it use my account on the platform? No. No account of yours needed, your accounts stay out of it. You need one SocialToAI account, made with an email. ### Can I try it for free? Yes. 100 free credits on sign-up, no card. A free account holds 1 watch, and at 16 credits a run the free credits cover 6 runs. ### Is it real time? No. It runs daily or weekly at the time you choose. ### Is a run charged when nothing is new? Yes: it read the page, so it costs a run. A failed run costs nothing, and a run over your limit is skipped, free. - [Brand buzz](https://socialtoai.com/tools/brand-buzz.md): The tool page with the daily button. - [Brand monitoring with AI](https://socialtoai.com/use-cases/brand-monitoring.md): The whole job, with a prompt. - [Monitor Chinese social from abroad](https://socialtoai.com/how-to/monitor-xiaohongshu-douyin-weibo-from-outside-china.md): No Chinese phone or company. - [Daily watch, every job](https://socialtoai.com/monitors.md): What else can be watched.
